A McCarthy 7
Made some excellent saves in the first half to keep Saints in the game.
Y Valery 4
Pulled off at half time after edging closer to a second yellow card. Will hopefully be a learning curve.
J Bednarek 6
A couple of sloppy mistakes but that’s expected after such a long time out.
J Vestergaard 4
His error led to Cardiff’s winner in what is a match to forget for the defender.
M Targett 6
Whipped in a couple of dangerous crosses and after a shaky start, he grew into the game.
O Romeu 7
It was like he had never been out of the side.
P-E Hojbjerg 6
Quiet by his own standards.
M Lemina 8
Was easily Saints’ best player on the pitch and didn’t deserve to be on the losing side.
S Armstrong 6
Didn’t reach the same heights he reached against Fulham and Manchester United. Had a penalty appeal waved away.
N Redmond 6
Made some good runs forward but lacked the final killer pass.
C Austin 6
Had a few opportunities early on before fading away.
SUBS:
J Stephens (Valery 46) 7
M Gabbiadini (Austin 75) 6
J W-Prowse (Romeu 80)
